Lamar Jackson is a sensation the likes of which this league has never seen before. Vick was great but I honestly don't believe he was in Lamar's league when he started out or even in his first stint as QB in Atlanta as the #1 pick.
Lamar Jackson is so far beyond anything we've seen that the only comparison I can make to him is from another sport. Basketball. Yes, the way he makes you stay riveted to him when he's on the playing field is reminiscent of MJ when he played a BB game. I've been to Wizards games where I had my binoculars literally trained on MJ and didn't care about anything else. Lamar Jackson has the same kind of effect on people.
Sure some fans hate him, but they'll all learn to love him soon enough when they too can't take their eyes off him. Remember MJ and the Detroit days and the negativity that surrounded him?
Call me purple koolaid drunk, but I'm sticking with my theory.
